Event Data Via the Web

The SER Web Interface connects to existing event recorders currently installed in a plant and provides the user with event data across the plant LAN or across the company’s WAN.

Legacy SERs or SOE recorders have typically not had networking capability, and therefore valuable alarm and event data is available on a limited basis. The SER (for Sequence of Events) Web Interface is designed to solve this problem. With the SER Web Interface, the data is received or uploaded from the SER, placed in the interface’s history files, and the data is made available from any authorized workstation on the network with a browser. Data is also stored in daily activity files that can be retrieved and stored off line in a tag-delimited format and exported to a word processor or spreadsheet.
